First off you need sub-categories for that like novelists, philosophers and poets for example, and second off its clear that you only read in English.

>>66868682
In English at least, the best playwright and poet are the same person.

>>66868967
Poet is debatable but I agree for playwriter.

>>66868682
Britain is still clearly better at all those things. What did France do with the enlightenment? Just behead a bunch of people and try to conquer europe.

Really parading those individualist and humanist values there.

>>66869358
Yeah if it was really about the last millenium, we'll be first in almost every category :^)

Do you really think it is that clear cut ? And thats only France, Russia is also a strong contender.

>>66870192
plato is shit , Homer is shit, Virgil is shit Seneca (who was born in Hispania) is shit...

>>66868293
Sweden deserves something for starting the trend that France and Germany followed of invading Russia to initial success followed by disintegrating

John Milton

>>66870797
Is Milton superior to Plato, Virgil, Goethe, Cervantez, Seneca, Descartes,Montesquieu,Voltaire or Diderot?

>>66871197
I disagree with the choice of Britain having the best writers but it's entirely subjective anyway so there's no point in arguing about it

What did Britain do? France actually did something with it, and the writings of French philosophes greatly influenced the Founding Fathers.

granted a lot of those resulted in peaceful settling and integration (like the celts, anglos, and danes) but idk if that makes us the best at resisting invasions or just the best at converting invaders

>>66868293
Why don't we have best painters/poets/writers/philisophers/filmakers ?
Why is the flag important ? Why does a fuckin burgercucked is making the ranking ?

I'd argue that Spain has the best architecture.

Have you not seen what Gaudi has done in Spain, he made amazing buildings. That's not even mentioning all the cathedrals and palaces around Spain. They've been so dedicated to this 1 building, that even after the designer's death they've kept building it.

>>66872937
i'm aware of gaudi m8

but it doesn't make up for 90% of the country looking like a package holiday hellhole

>>66872843
I would rather say Italy on architecture, they have incredible buildings even in the most little cities.

>>66873020
It doesn't matter. All European renaissance architecture was good. And now everyone builds shitty modernist crap.

>>66873162
Italy has the best architecture from antiquity to modern era, with an astonishing medieval heritage.
Italy is the homeland of renaissance architecture, but at the scale of History it was not the only relevant period.

Have you been actually been to Italy ?

>>66869291
italy architecture is rubble compared to the rest of europe, or at least now it is

Which European country has the best movies though?

>Germany
>Best musicians
Britain has the best musicians, that's undebatable. It doesn't matter how much you like German music from 400 years ago

>>66874064
gotta agree here.

>>66874064
Britain has the best modern musicians. But in a historical context, Germany had many better musicians.

>>66874121
>better musicians
when it comes to painting or music it's all very subjetive for fuck sake.
Can you say that ''mona lisa'' is better than ''guernica''?
Or that Mozart was better than Metallica?
